London pre-move-in cleaning · Central London
We work in Tower Hamlets every week — canary wharf towers, docklands water and the east end's brick lane and bethnal green streets. Pre-move-in cleaning is priced against that reality, not a national average.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or one-bedroom flat | £95 | 2–3 hrs | Kitchen, bathroom and every cupboard cleaned inside before a single box comes in, including the previous tenant's dust and grease. |
| Two-bedroom flat or maisonette | £140 | 3–4 hrs | Two bathrooms or an en suite add time, and empty rooms mean skirting and window sills get a proper first-fit clean. |
| Three-bedroom house | £195 | 4–6 hrs | More floor area and usually a garage or utility room that a standard clean would skip. |
| Four-bedroom house or larger | £260 | 6–8 hrs | Two cleaners working room by room so the property is ready before the removal van is booked to arrive. |
| Oven, hob and extractor add-on | £65 | 1–2 hrs | New-build show ovens and inherited appliances both need a dip-tank clean before first use, not a wipe-over. |
| Carpet clean add-on, per room | £35 | 30–45 min | Hot-water extraction on the carpets left behind by a previous occupant, before furniture goes down on them. |
| Internal window and sill clean, whole property | £45 | 1 hr | Sills and internal glass throughout, so the light coming into an empty room isn't through someone else's fingerprints. |
Prices include VAT with a £95 minimum charge per visit. Properties are cleaned empty wherever possible — furniture in situ takes longer and is quoted on survey. Completion-day bookings are held to the timescale conveyancers actually work to, not a fixed calendar slot.
Working in Tower Hamlets
Tower Hamlets is built from high-rise waterfront apartments with concierge, victorian terraces and dense post-war estates, and the mix changes street by street — Bethnal Green (E2), Bow (E3) and Bromley-by-Bow (E3) each behave differently on the day.
London Borough of Tower Hamlets sets the constraint: tower blocks with goods-lift booking, canary wharf estate permits, and cpzs across bethnal green and bow. Locally that means sunday market closures, ltn filters and tower blocks with a single small lift and bow flyover red routes, market-day restrictions and gated conversion estates. Part of Tower Hamlets sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, so the charge is quoted as its own line rather than hidden in the labour rate.
London Borough of Tower Hamlets tenancies and the local letting agents in Tower Hamlets both work to a written check-out standard rather than a general impression of clean. We clean to that list, photograph the finish and re-attend free if the inventory clerk disagrees.
Tower Hamlets took its present shape because dockland and rag-trade heartland; the docks closed in the 1980s and the lddc rebuilt the isle of dogs as a financial district.

Studio or one-bedroom flat starts at £95 in Tower Hamlets, and the ladder runs up to £45 for the largest job on the table above. Bedroom count and whether the property is empty set the price. Furniture still in place, or a heavy inherited kitchen, adds time a truly empty property does not need. Part of the borough is inside the Congestion Charge zone, so a £15 daily charge is added as its own line when the job falls inside the charging hours.
We cover the whole borough: E1, E14, E1W, E2, E3 and EC3. On the ground that includes Bethnal Green, Bow, Bromley-by-Bow, Canary Wharf, Isle of Dogs and Limehouse.
Completion dates move, so we hold flexible same-week slots and can usually confirm the exact time once contracts are exchanged. Central London is covered by crews already working in the borough, so travel time is not billed on top.
Tower blocks with goods-lift booking, Canary Wharf estate permits, and CPZs across Bethnal Green and Bow. Where a permit or a bay suspension is needed we arrange it with London Borough of Tower Hamlets and show the cost in the quote before you agree it. Nothing is added afterwards.
Yes. High-rise waterfront apartments with concierge, Victorian terraces and dense post-war estates is exactly the stock we work in daily. Where there is no lift, the crew size is set by the floor level at quote stage, so a third-floor walk-up is priced as a third-floor walk-up rather than re-quoted on the doorstep.
Cleaners carry £1m public liability and work to COSHH sheets for every product, which is what most managing agents ask for before a first inspection. Certificates go out with the booking confirmation, which is what London Borough of Tower Hamlets tenancies and most local managing agents ask for.
One cleaner for a flat; two for a house, so the property is finished in one visit rather than split across a day. Vehicles are ULEZ-compliant, which matters in every Tower Hamlets postcode, and the crew carries everything needed to complete the job in one visit.
Removal of rubbish or furniture left behind by a previous occupant — quoted separately as a clearance, External window cleaning or exterior brickwork and render and Carpet and upholstery cleaning unless added to the booking. If something on that list turns up in Tower Hamlets, we tell you at survey and point you at the right trade rather than taking the booking anyway.

The cleaners I booked for my E14 flat did a great job, professional and thorough. It is easy to book services via Hello Services too. Will recommend them to anyone.
Diana and Alex carried out a deep clean for my property prior to new tenants arriving. The actually cleaning was superb and I would highly recommend them. The only downside was the office and booking system. The poor couple had to travel from Wimbledon to sidcup after waiting for the previous client to attend and… Read in full →
First time using this company and I could not be any happier I found them. Sekai, Gary and Richmond did an excellent job doing a full deep clean of my house. Professional, friendly and polite at all time, they made me confident the job would be of high standards from the start. Thank you very… Read in full →
